you didn't say much mouth wise more body language politics but I liked the words and how you put them in places then wore them just for my eyes parking lots are so informal it is hard to find dance partners but your doors were open and the song was appropriate and I was available with a wave you were taller than I realized as we saw eye to eye perfectly while sitting on the boardwalk discussing hand shake etiquette and watching gulls sort gourmet it is tomorrow today later now I can't find my keys in the sand but then it is just a bucket full with a note of please and thank you and you are welcome to stay longer if the grave stones don't make you crazy ______________ daark |

Dark, I read these piercing moments like a peeping tom and always end up amazed at how you control the uncontrollable. You make it impossible to quote but a single line as standing out, since the entire work is outstanding. But there is one thing I would like to differ with you about. I have found a few dance partners in parking lots. They are not difficult to find, rather, it is difficult to find ones that dance well. As always, this too I adored Sandra |

Dark, your style of writing is a pioneer in modern poetry. A style that is not matched and too good to even think about overlooking. You're a great role model for poetry of different tones. Cheers - Ed Once you are truly insane, it’s all picnics with Kafka after that. See, it’s the process of going crazy that you gotta worry about. |

Well, you already know how I think of your writing...a modern day special man. But, given the political feel, and the last line, I can sense a whole lot of grasping [for votes] in this one. You've got mine. [This message has been edited by Sunshine (10-20-2006 08:00 AM).] |

Parking lots so informal and dancing partners hard to find. You brought tears to my eyes here, and a tug of pain to my heart. Powerful words. bye 4 now, Kingsangel kingsangel |

reading some of your pieces is like walking through a poetic cemetary on a beautiful but foggy night. Dark and mysterious and haunting. All good things, considered. beautiful write. xx Cheye |

Having read this interesting poem..... I can't help but 'seek out'...much more of the work of this 'dark' wordsmith.... Though I have 'oft spents a great deal of time in graveyards along the way... I have found that therein, I tend to 'go sane' (rather than 'crazy'!)..... the dead can be so much more calm, wise, and consistent than the living! [dark *smile*!] --- this complimentary comment is from a 'stormy' dark-light poet (who has no 'middle ground) who doesn't 'do' shades of grey. |
